What’s my favorite twitch streamer Hasan think of this

libertarian itt hide your kids

there is no mental gymnastics it’s taking the time to understand its more nuanced than “corruption” or good guys vs bad guys or whatever racist caricature of a d*** lord you think Maduro is to blindly run cover for American imperialism

Maduro isn’t even the main factor whatever stooge they put in his place will continue to “corruption” except this time idk Shell and Exxon will get a larger share of profits than Venezuela capital

Mamdani is basically the Trick Trick of global politics

that's not what he said
in that case a pro-maduro venezuelan's viewpoint/analysis is just as correct as his, so what's the conclusion one can make from two people just giving their subjective opinions?

and making the other alternative "a person who only reads articles" is kind of dishonest lol. what about pol sc scholars? there are people who've dedicated their lives to studying certain conflicts and areas without ever having lived there really

firsthand experience from the common people (not financiers) provides facts, context, and constraints that outsiders lack or don't understand. treating lived experience as irrelevant is as flawed as treating it as decisive, but I'd still put more weight in firsthand experience than someone who has no real connection to the topic

Someone’s material a***ysis being informative and contextual does not mean it’s coherent or materially correct

Emotional connections mean nothing in the grand scheme of knowledge even if they’re motivators to learn and know more. It’s about how robust your worldview is when you put it up against the way things really end up working

This that 20th century imperialism

When Israel gets leveled as collateral

it should all be taken with a grain of salt, with multiple perspectives of people who are actually living through it

I'm assuming nobody itt is a pol sci with a background in Venezuelan politics. if there were two scholars like that, I'd value the work of the person born and raised in Venezuela over the scholar who's never been to South America

South Africa vs Israel in a neck in neck race to the bottom
